Where the gap is

from the numbers above

Caris LeVert scored more in 2025-26, 0.1 points a game apart (7.4 vs 7.3), on LeVert's heavier usage (17.8% vs 15.5%).

Sanders is the more efficient scorer by true shooting, 59.7% to 51.8%; TS% folds threes and free throws into one number, so the gap survives shot-diet differences.

Playmaking goes to LeVert (2.7 vs 1.6 assists), the glass to Sanders (2.3 vs 2.0 rebounds).

Availability is part of the comparison: Sanders played 8 more games (68 vs 60 of 82).

With LeVert on the floor his team outscored opponents by +0.8 per 100 possessions, against +0.2 for Sanders; on-court net rating carries the teammates with it, so read it next to PIE.

On the books for 2026-27: LeVert $14.8M through 2026-27, Sanders $2.6M through 2029-30. Whether either fits a trade is a Trade Machine question, not a stat one.
